Not a big fan of pork, but dh likes it.....so.....what kind of pork do you can? I am guessing it has to be fairly lean?? Do you add anything to it? How do you like to eat it? I am picturing cubed lean pork.....

I don't know....I'm just not a big pork eater, but I'm thinking it would be good to add to my pantry.

I understand but meat packing plant?
What are they rubbing on each other?
Is it the ventilator system?

1) records on motion so I can record licence plates and occupant mugs
2) sends an alert to the house and phones.

The house is 1000' away, line of sight. It would be a plus if I can expand the system to monitor other fence lines closer to the house. Laser beam break alert or similar tech.

So lets learn from this event: Somethings to take note of, for next time

1. All my medical thermostats were electrical, so I got some from Amazon, the old type Classic Traditional Mercury Glass thermostat. Better if an EMP comes this way.

The grand prize would be putting 4 viruses in to one attack.
Most people would think combined the bad ones as a weapon (Smallpox, Rabies, Ebola)
They would do this to get past the 80% rule; most viruses only kill 80% of the Enemy.
Put together they kill more then 80%.

But what if you used normal simple sickness (cold, rash, ETC)

The best assassin comes in cold nice normal then makes the kill.
just a fear and "the only thing we have to fear is fear...
